Report it to whom? Often no way to tell. But yeah. Sort-of-related: In a large company, there may be two or more people named Joe Blow. You'd think that they'd be sensitive to the existence of each other, would forward misdirected email. You'd often be wrong. When we got acquired by a much larger company, I immediately looked, found there were now four Phil Smiths, so I emailed the other three. One responded cheerfully; the other two, nada. Bizarre. There was also a "me" who'd left; I inherited his email address (which wasn't supposed to be possible) and he had several personal things connected to that address, which I could probably have parlayed into something profitable, had I been so inclined. And there's also another phsiii on Gmail who doesn't know his own email address; I could have cancelled his car appointment, his dental appointment, and his wife's college reunion. That mail continues, is a small source of amusement. I wonder whether he even realizes how much he's missing! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
